(a) There are many older Kansans who face difficulties in maintaining self-care and independent living within the mainstream of life;

(c) it is in the interest of older Kansans and of providers of care that a coordinated system of services be developed; and

(d) it is in the interest of older Kansans and of providers of care that preventative health services be made available.
